London Eye for Free
The London Eye is the world’s tallest cantilevered observation wheel which offers unique panoramic views of London. There are plenty of press releases on the web stating that on New Year’s Eve, the team at The London Eye will offer the wheel and their services free of charge to the GLA. Great marketing activity to assist in giving London a spectacular New Year’s Eve experience at 135 metres high. The London Eye is owned by the Merlin Entertainments Group and has become a 21st century symbol and icon for Britain. Since opening in March 2000, the Eye has welcomed over 32 million visitors from all over the world. www.londoneye.com
Plan your journey and think about your route out and back before to get there and let people know where you are going. Remember that you may have to walk further to get to where you need to be because maybe the shorter route is packed or inaccessible. Wear good walking shoes, wrap up warm and don’t get caught out by the cold weather.
